TAILLADIN
Pierre François La Varenne, 1651: Tailladin soup: Make a pafte seasoned with salt, spread it & cut it as small as you point out" bread it with the poëfle, & cook it with a little good broth. Eftant well stewed, take very little bread, & garnish it with your tailladins, season like the fïdelles, then serve.
Another way.
If you have a little thin paste or puff pastry, spread it out, & cut it into a tailladin, pass it in refined butter, garnish with your soup, & serve.
Thus, tailladins are first thin strips, and then thin strips of lemon or orange. }

TANIN (or TANNIN, prefer spelling with a single n):
(Dic ac fr) Composed of the phenol family, most often water-soluble, found in some plants and which has various properties, including astringency.
(TLFi) Organic compound contained in many plants, especially in barks and woods (oak, chestnut, acacia, quebracho), roots (heather, badan), leaves (sumac, gambier), fruits and pods (myrobolam, acacia), tanning galls (oak galls), juices and gums (kino), and which is used for various purposes, especially in skin tanning, ink manufacturing or in pharmacology.
(Dupré, 1972) Note: The tannin spelling is preferable for its simplicity.
(H. This) The term tannin is often used wrongly to refer to phenolic compounds, especially in the world of wine. The phenolic compounds of plants are numerous, and a particular category of phenolic compounds is that of tannins (let's insist: tannins are all phenolic compounds, but there are phenolic compounds that are not tannins).
Tannins are the phenols that tan, which can be related to proteins, in order to strengthen the cohesion of the skin.
In wine, it is true that there are phenolic compounds, and especially tannins. However, while all tannins are phenolic compounds, not all phenolic compounds in wine are tannins.
Tannins
by H. This vo Kientza
Tannins... "The wine is tannic"... "The tannins are melted"... The word "tannin" is often used in cooking and in sommellerie, but the use made of it is contrary to the truth. Let's explain.
In wine, there are compounds of various kinds: first water, then ethanol, then other compounds called succinic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, phenolic compounds, amino acids, sugars, minerals, and a host of odor compounds.
"Compound": this means "class of molecules". For each compound, there are billions and billions of molecules, all identical. For example, ethanol is a compound, and in a bottle of wine there is about a million billion billion.
Now let's come to the phenolic compounds, or "phenols": these are compounds whose molecules are made of at least six carbon atoms chained in a hexagon, with, attached to one of the carbon atoms, an oxygen atom itself linked to a hydrogen atom.
Various different molecules, all corresponding to "phenolic compounds", can exist, when other carbon atoms are added, or when other oxygen atoms linked to hydrogen atoms are grafted. And so, when there are several groups made of an oxygen atom linked to a hydrogen atom, we speak of "phenols".
And tannins? These are even more particular compounds: phenolic compounds that can tan, which means that they are able to band to proteins, as in the leather of clothes, belts, shoes...
These compounds are bitter or astringent, as appropriate. And they are found in many vegetable materials, such as wood: if tree bark is cooked in water, a very astringent and tannic solution is recovered. And it is true that some wines contain tannins, as we can see by putting a sip of a tannic wine in the mouth, chewing it, then spitting it out: we see that the tannins have bound to saliva proteins and have generated deposits.
So yes, there are tannins in wines, but especially phenolic compounds, which are also responsible for the color.
When wine ages, phenolic compounds react either with each other or with other wine compounds. And in particular tannins bond together, forming chemical aggregates that lose the ability to be astringent: tannins have therefore not melted, but, on the contrary, they have aggregated! And changes in taste, astringency, color... are not only due to tannins, but to all phenolic compounds.
I therefore dream of a renovation of the food professions where, instead of saying anything about tannins, professionals use the right words, to their own attention, but above all to the attention of their customers.
SO MUCH FOR SO MUCH:
(ref nec) Mixture of icing sugar and powdered almonds in a 50/50 dosage, hence its name "so much for so much" (50% of one and 50% of the other). This product is sold ready in specialty stores for pastry. But you can do it yourself.

TARINE:
(ref nec) This cow is native to the Tarentaise valley in Savoie, not far from Albertville, but it nevertheless owes its origins to Indian-Asian brown cattle. It took its name Tarentaise in 1863, and its genealogical book was created in 1888. From this period, the Tarine quickly developed throughout Savoy, then throughout the Alps. La Tarine is a large mountaineer, adapted to temperature variations and rough terrain. Herds are usually carried into extensive grazing dairy systems. Raised for its excellent cheese qualities thanks to its milk rich in protein and fat, it has given birth to many cheeses of Controlled Designation of Origin that are now renowned. The Tarentaise, also called Tarine, is first recognized by her uniform fawn dress. Its stainness is weaker than many other dairies.
TARTARE

VEAL TARTARE:
(ref nec) Minced veal and accommodated like beef tartare steak, but must be lightly seasoned so as not to mask the delicate veal meat.
PIE:
According to the TLFi, a pie would be a flat pastry, usually round, made of a dough base with a rim filled with various ingredients (fruits, jam, cream, frangipane, etc.) that are baked in the oven (except for some red fruits that are put raw on the cooked dough) and that are usually consumed cooled.
Orig. uncertain, prob. var. of pie* (cf. lat. medieval. torta, tarta, turta, tourta att. dep. late 9th century in the sense of "round bread" and "pie", v. NIERM.)
However, this definition is quite insufficient, and, in reality, we should name our "pies" flans, or tartlets, as indicated in the following article, publed in the Nouvelles gastronomiques:
"Tarte, by Hervé This.
By the way, what is a pie? The question seems silly, but we will see that our terminological uses are very wrong!
Let's start as often with a dictionary, a voucher, that of the CNRS, called Trésor de la langue française computerized. The latter tells us that a pie is a "Flat pastry, generally round, made of a dough base with a rim filled with various ingredients (fruits, jam, cream, frangipane, etc.) that is cooked in the oven (except some red fruits that are put raw on the cooked dough) and that is generally consumed cooled". This dictionary, which has the merit of giving the etymology of the words... unfortunately tells us that the origin of the word "pie" is uncertain, and that the word probably derives from pie, from the medieval Latin torta, tarta, turta, torta attested since the end of the 9th century in the sense of "round bread" and "pie".
But we know that this deserving dictionary is not always up to par, in terms of taste professions, so I went to look in the old cookbooks. I find a pie in 1319... but no recipe. I find only the word "tart" in 1604, in the book of Lancelot de Casteau, and no recipes. In 1643, the author who only signs with his initials L.S.R. also indicates that there are tartlets (no pie) of different shapes; and he does not talk about pies.
And comes, 1654, Nicolas de Bonnefons, cook of King Louis XIV, who gives a recipe for "Paste de façon de faire Tartes":
"To a flower bush, you will put six pounds of butter, & twenty eggs, you will soak everything with cold water, then you will quickly grind it, tighten it in a white cloth, & carry it in a cool place to take it if necessary when you want to make Tarts. You will note that in all pasta you always need a quarter of salt for each bod of flour, & if the butter is salted you only need half a quarter. "
This time, we see that the dough is intended to be lowered, for pies.
But, again, in 1822, the author of the Royal Cook (M. Viard) only speaks of "tartlets" (with frangipane):
"Cook fifteen tartlet molds with puff trimmings, fill them with frangipane, to which you will have added a little praline choux pastry; brown them, and place a small strip of puff pastry turned on them in the shape of a spiral; cook them in a hot oven: they are done, remove them, and glaze them white."
Now let's get to Joseph Favre, and his Universal Cooking Dictionary. He evokes the pie:
"TARTE, s. f. AU. Torts; English tart; Russian sladhipiroghe; ital. tartara, tarta. From the Low Latin tarta; Walloon, tâat.— Flat and round cake, today more commonly called flan. The word pie has rather remained the English expression of these types of cakes, whose fruits, which determine their name, are cooked in a special dish and covered with a dough: apple's tart, gooseberry tart, etc.; apple pie, currant, cherry, plum, rhubarb pie, etc.; synonym of flan (See this word). However, the pies are never covered with grills like flans."
What, a pie would be a flan, in good French? In other words, all our pies would be wrongly named, anglicized? That's why we would have only talked about tartlets, in the past!
So let's look at "tart":
"TART, s.f. Ail. Toertchen; English tartlet; Russian pirajok, tartaletha; ital. tarlarelto.
— Diminutive of pie. In the sixteenth century they were also called flannets. There are two types of tartlets: T. based on meat or fish, which are served as hot and cold appetizers, and sweet T. made from jams, fruit or cream, which are served as a dessert, at snack, or, more commonly, as a retail pastry between meals".
And what does he say about the word "flan"?
"FLAN, s. m. (Pastry term). German etymology Fladen, derived from the high ail. flado, hence the low Latin fiato; fiatonis; prov. flarïzon; ital. fiadine; angl. custard; rus. lepiochJca. — Pie prepared in a circle 2 or 3 centimeters high and of a variable circumference. The crust is always composed of a shortcrust pastry, while the filling varies between all the fruits, creams and appliances. There are two ways to prepare the flans, one is to prepare the dough in the flan circle, garnish it with fruit or cream and cook it; the other to cook the crust and then garnish it; this last mode is used by pastry chefs so as not to expose themselves to losing the fruit".
We find the previous meaning.
This makes us arrive chronologically at the Culinary Guide, by Escoffier, Gilbert and Fetu. There, we find:
"English-styll fruit pies. - They are made in special hollow dishes called pie dish, or dough dishes. The fruits, cleaned or peeled according to their nature, are arranged in the dish up to 1 centimeter from the edges, sprinkled with blonde brown or powdered sugar, and sprinkled with a spoonful of water. Cover with a layer of dark dough that is fixed on the edges of the dish as explained to the English Pâtés (chap. des Viandes de Boucherie). Wet the surface of the lid, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and bake in an oven of moderate heat. All English pies are made by this process, and all fruits can be used, even when they are still green, mainly grapes and mackerel currants".
For the tartlets:
"Tartlets. - Are subject to many modifications, and can, as the case may be, be garnished raw or in the form of white-cooked croutons. In this case, the croutons are coated with a light layer of the used stuffing and baked for a moment before receiving the sauced filling".
But then comes the recipe for the Lorraine quiche:
"Sugar-free milk flan whose bottom is garnished with thin slices of blanched and returned breast bacon and gruyère blades. "
And we can see that it's like our pies!
So let's go back to the computerized Treasury of the French language, since we have not consulted the word "flan", and we find:
"A. PASTRY. Sweet cream made with eggs, milk and flour that is baked in the oven; p. meton., pie topped with this cream.
Etymol. and Hist. 1. a) [End of the 11th century (ms. of 1190) fladon "disc intended to receive an impression by pressure" (RASCHI, Gl., ed. A. Darmesteter and D. S. Blondheim, t. 1, p. 67)]; 1376 flaon (Document ds DU CANGE, s.v. flans) 2. ca 1180 art culin. flaon (Proverbs au vilain, 237 ds T.-L.); end of the 13th century [ms.] flan (ROQUES t. 1, I, 1978). From the germ. occid. *flado, cf. l'a. h. all. flado "cake, galette, crepe" (GRAFF t. 3, col. 771), all. Fladen "id.", m. nerl. vlade "id. (VERDAM), v. FEW t. 15, 2, pp. 132b-134a. Flado is attested in b. lat. in the sixth century in the sense 2".
Finally, everything is clarified, in three ideas: (1) our flans are not only dough bottoms filled with an egg-based preparation, (2) our pies are derivatives of pies, with an Anglicism, and (3) we should, much more often, talk about tartlets! "
LINZ PIE:
(ref nec) Pie garnished with a raspberry jam without seeds, decorated with strips ("riolée") of fluted dough arranged in crosses on the pie and whose linzer dough is flavored with kirsch and cinnamon.
SANDWICH:

TARTIFLETTE:
(Savoyard cuisine, S. Léveillé, ed. J-P Gisserot) Dish from the Aravis, originally composed of raw potatoes in cubes, sliced onions and cooked in melted Reblochon. Unlike those that are being made now, made of sliced potatoes and cooked in water, smoked bacon, onion and Reblochon, all cooked in a dish in the oven.
TARTRAZINE:
Yellow dye considered as an additive of code E102.
TARTARE:
(H. This) Tartar is a crystallization of calcium carbonate. Not to be confused with "wine tartar", which is mainly made up of potassium tartrate (+).
WINE TART
(Civa) Impure potassium tartrate crystals can sometimes form a deposit at the bottom of wine bottles. They are due to the precipitation of tartaric acid (+) and potassium following a drop in temperature. This reaction is quite spontaneous; it is generally observed in barrels. To avoid it in bottles, physical stabilization is carried out by cold before bottling.
PILE OF SALT:
(P. Lacam, New Pastry Memorial) In principle 12 gr. Dose used per liter or pound of flour in the manufacture of pasta.
CUP
(TLFi) Small container with a prow or ears, which is used to absorb a drink (usually hot).

TATIN:
(ref nec) Tatin is the name given to an apple pie baked "inside down", under a dough lid but served "on the right", i.e. crust underneath and fruit on top.
RATE OF FLOUR EXTRACTION:
See "Ash content of flours".
FLOUR FLOUR FLIGHT:
(Code des usages Floure – October 2016) The labelling of flours bears the mention of the ash content, expressed as a percentage, reduced to the dry matter [ref nec: Ratio between the mass of the remaining ash after calcination of a flour sample in a laboratory furnace at 900°C, and the mass of this sample. The ash content is an indication of the mineral content of flour.]
However, this indication may be replaced by the mention of one of the approved types, each of the types corresponding to a range of ash rates, defined by ministerial order:
Name Ash rate of wheat flour (% reduced to dry matter)
Type 45: Below 0.50%
Type 55: From 0.50 to 0.60%
Type 65: From 0.62 to 0.75%
Type 80: From 0.75% to 0.90%
Type 110: From 1.00 to 1.20%
Type 150: Above 1.40%

Name Ash rate of rye and meteil flour (% reduced to dry matter)
Type 70: From 0.60 to 1.00%
Type 85: From 0.75% to 1.25%
Type 130: From 1.20 to 1.50%
Type 170: Above 1.50%

The types of flours are related to the extraction rate.
The lowest type corresponds to a flour that mainly contains the almond of wheat or
Rye (low extraction rate).
Conversely, wholemeal flours correspond to wheat flours of type 150 and rye flours of type 170 and include all the peripheral parts of the grains (high extraction rate). Thus, the ash content, correlated with the mineral material present in the flour, is all the lower the proportion of the grain envelope.
Each type of wheat and rye flour can be used in baking. The flours of others
cereals have no obligation to label an ash content or type, and can
also be used in baking.
The specifications established with the customers make it possible to define the complementary elements to the type of flour: composition (other possible ingredients), technological quality, health quality and delivery conditions.
However, it is specified that the addition of bean flour to wheat flour increases the ash content of the mixture; however, the ash levels indicated in the scale above correspond to analyses of pure wheat flours. Under these conditions and in agreement with the profession, it was decided that the maximum percentages could increase by 0.03% by 1%
of incorporated bean flour.
T-BONE:
(ref nec) The T-Bone (or Tee-Bone) is an American cut including the sirloin and the fillet, with a piece of column uniting the two pieces. This original presentation combines the presentation of the fillet and the tenderness of the fillet by adding the taste that the bone will give to the cooking. It is a very technical piece, because there is the bone to cut with a saw. Its preparation is reserved for experienced professionals.
TELLINE:
(ref nec) Bivalve lamellibranch mollusk, with a smooth, flat and elongated shell whose mantle is lined with tentacles. Its white flesh is stained with purple, brown or orange. The telline lives in the sandbanks of the Rhone delta. It is particularly consumed as an aperitif in the Camargue and Languedoc.
TEMPERAGE:
(ref nec) Operation by which chocolate is given a smooth and shiny appearance. It is a matter of melting the chocolate, cooling it to a first temperature, which leads to a mixture of crystals (for triglycerides) of various kinds, before heating a little, in order to make disappear the crystals that would lead to a dull appearance; the subsequent cooling is then determined by the crystals that remain, favorable.
Temperature variations depend on the type of chocolate. The chopped or pistole chocolate is melted in a water bath basin at 55 °C for dark chocolate and 45 °C for milk chocolate and white chocolate. Depending on the method chosen, by tablating or by seeding, the pre-crystallization temperature curves will be as follows:
. 28 to 29 °C for dark chocolate,
. 27 to 28 °C for milk chocolate,
. 26 to 27 °C for white chocolate.
By checking with the thermometer, the chocolate will then be returned to the operating temperatures below, making sure not to exceed them:
. 31 to 32 °C for dark chocolate,
. 29 to 30 °C for milk chocolate,
. 28 to 29 °C for white chocolate.
Then store the chocolate in a water bath at its right temperature.
BASE TEMPERATURE:
(Ref nec) Or base figure, or reference base. Term used by bakers to express the "ideal" temperature of the dough. This figure makes it possible to calculate the temperature of the water that will be added to the flour, to obtain an ideal temperature for the work of yeasts that will determine the taste of the bread and its appearance.
To express this "ideal" temperature of the dough, rather than saying "the dough must be 24°C" for example, bakers talk about the base temperature. This base temperature is included in a calculation that involves: the temperature of the room (the bakery for them, the kitchen for us) and the temperature of the flour. The result is the temperature of the water that must be added to the flour to make the recipe, and that bakers call "pouring water":
T° of water = T° of base - (T° of flour + T° of the kitchen) Example: It is 20 °C in your kitchen, your flour is at 18 °C and the base temperature of your recipe is 54 °C, knowing that it must be the temperature of the water for this recipe?
Water temperature = 54 - (20 + 18) = 16°C.
SMOKE TEMPERATURE:
(Michel Ollé, Analysis of fats, analysis and characterization. INRS document) Smoke temperature is the temperature from which edible oils or fats emit fumes continuously and begin to decompose or denature. (Examples: refined peanut oil: 232°C, extra virgin olive oil: 216°C).
MELTING TEMPERATURE:
(ref nec) Temperature at which a body passes from the solid state to the liquid state.
For example: the melting temperature of butter is between 27 and 32°C depending on its origin, lard: above 30°C, chocolate: 35/36°C.
TEMPERATE:
(Dic Ac of chocolate) Device used to melt the chocolate cover without burning it and by ensuring that the desired temperature is maintained for a desired time.
RELAXATION TIME:
(ref nec) Rest period of the dough following weighing or bowing, before shaping and priming time.
FLOOR TIME:

VEAL HEAD FROM RAMBERVILLERS:
(http://www.ramberinfo.com/index.php? option=com_content&view=article&id=99&Itemid=149) It is reported that the Rambuvetais once had, for their herds, a right of way on the territory of Padoux, a common right with the people of Épinal. However, it is said that one day the Spinalians stole 12 heads of cattle. The offenders were ordered, as they should, return twelve heads of cattle. But, biasing on the words, the Spinalians laid twelve well-cut veal heads. Hence the name of calf heads given to the inhabitants of Rambervillers.

However, this treatment can lead to a decrease in the banal microbial load of milk (lactic bacteria, aging bacteria, etc.). This charge is generally used for the preparation of raw milk cheese. In this case, laboratory-grown bacteria must be used to replace those that have disappeared.

The oldest known recipe (Thomas Dawson. 1596. The good huswife's jewell) stipulated a thick cream flavored with sugar, ginger and rose water; later, the eggs were added and the cream was poured on bread impregnated with alcohol.

TRIGLYCERIDES:
(H. This) Food fats are, most often, almost exclusively made of compounds of the triglyceride family, more aptly called triacylglycerols. Depending on the atomic constitution of their molecules, the various triglycerides have different melting temperatures. And it is because the butter contains very varied triglycerides that it begins to melt around -10 °C, and ends up melting at 55 °C. Chocolate, on the other hand, is made of less varied triglycerides, which explains why its melting range is narrower (end of melting at about 37 °C).

TRUFFLE:
(ref nec) The truffle is the vernacular name given to the edible fruiting of an ectomycorhizian ascomycetus fungus that comes in a more or less globular form. The mushroom can produce several truffles. Some truffles have been particularly popular since ancient times, and most truffle species are highly sought after, but the name truffle is also given to species that have little taste.
The black truffle or Périgord truffle, in Latin Tuber melanosporum, is found in calcareous soils at a depth of 1 to 15 cm at the foot of so-called "truffle" trees (oaks, hazelnuts, lime trees, charms...). It develops in the spring and grows from mid-August to mature several months later. It is then collected - we say "cavée" - usually with the help of a truffle dog, a pig or flies.
There are more than a hundred species of the genus {Tuber,} of the Tuberaceae family. These mushrooms and their fruiting can all be called truffles. In addition, due to morphological similarity, it is customary to call "truffle" edible sporophores of species that are quite distant from it, both for taste and by phylogeny. This is the case, for example, of Terfesse and deer truffle. The maturity period is variable according to the species. The truffle is a globular, blackish underground fungus more or less bristling with warts, brown or white depending on the species. The truffle is an edible, underground mushroom, which lives in symbiosis with certain trees (oaks, chestnut trees, hazelnuts, beeches) and on well-ventilated limestone soils. Its fruiting is irregularly globular, black, dark brown, gray, white and of variable weight. It is found less than 30 centimeters deep. Edible very sought after and expensive, the truffle is of very variable size.
